Should we have not tried hard to sign one big time RB?

Even if it meant going out of state? I know there are RB's in next years class but not to go after one of the better ones that were out there this year and there does seem to be several really top backs that were willing to leave their state.

We didn't go after rb. It's not like they didn't want to come

I guess the coaches are all in on Fournette for next year.

Fournette knows that we are laying out the red carpet for him.

Anyone thinking he goes elsewhere (especially Alabama) is paranoid.

RBs can come in and start right away, there isn't a huge learning curve there, especially when you can recruit like LSU. We are 3 deep not counting Magee next year. We're fine at RB.

Leonard Fournette is ours, and we'll sign 2 more probably with him. I am still a little worried how young we could be at RB though in 2014.

I didn't say they didn't want to come here. I'm saying that if there were big time backs like a couple of the ones that Bama took, should we have not recruiting one. I know we didn't recruit them for this class but why? Your assuming you get what you want next season.

Especially if Hill and Hilliard both decide to declare.

But you said try harder. We didn't try


A huge recruiting tactic for LF

Wouldn't shock me in the least bit, seeing as how players are so eager to make the jump, regardless of what they've accomplished.

magee could be the only rb returning with any experience in 2014.

Hilliard is our #3 RB

Our #3 RB is projected to be an early rd draft pick?

Hill is a great example of how young RB's can come in and light it up early. One of very few positions this can be done at in College Football.

Early, not the key word. Ford was our #3 guy this past year. He declared.
